Wow when I saw this post, it was so wild, I had to look up the raw trade data for myself. Sure enough, U.S. wine exports to Canada have fallen off a cliff:

American Association of Wine Economists AAWE@wineecon.bsky.social

U.S. wine export markets have contracted substantially. In April, the year-over-year export value dropped by 41.4%, worsening the 28% decline recorded in March. The three main export destinations for U.S. wine—Canada (-93%), the UK (-29%), and China (-70%)—all reported significant decreases.

Election Day 2025: leave it to Doug Ford Doug Ford to blow one final hole in Pierre Poilievre's sinking boat of slogans. No PP it's not about "change" or "woke" or "carbon tax Carney" - it's about standing up to Trump. And you ain't the guy. I love when Conservatives scrap in public.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

There are nightmare stories of people being pulled out of airport lines and being dragged off to ICE Detention centres. We are witnessing the implementation of "border fascism." Beware snowbirds and backpackers, you have become the blood threat to White MAGA. My latest. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Hey Ron DeSantis, Canada thinks your politics suck. We have stopped visiting and we have stopped buying. Look at the precipitous drop in orange juice sales. Lol. The boycott is strong and getting stronger.

BREAKING: Trump illegally invokes the Alien Enemies Act to detain and deport Venezuelan immigrants “deemed” to be members of a criminal gang, claiming extreme powers to do so without due process. Courts should reject this abusive invocation of a law intended for wartime.

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

It looks like a bribe and a signal to every company that corruption is the name of the game. After Meta pays to play, what does Mark Zuckerberg expect as a return on this investment?

The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com

Exclusive: Trump signed an agreement that would require Meta to pay $25 million to settle a lawsuit. The president sued in 2021 after his accounts were suspended.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"
